A DOUBLE STANDARD

The world mindset is changing that much is clear. And, the changes I am seeing are chocked full of promise and charity. I very much like what is before us all. I suffer from double vision, the result of many eye surgeries. I see the world with four eyes open! So imagine what I am

BE IT EVER SO HUMBLE…

A sanctuary, a refuge, a feeling of home – we have all been experiencing these emotions about our domicile while being sequestered these past two months.

Food For Thought

“Eat your fruit; Drink your water; Grow; Love yourself; Mind your business; Base all your actions on love; Spend time alone; and Trust your intuition.” I didn’t write that, but I have come to live by its credo. It is a simple set of thoughts, easy to prescribe to yet long on the worthy part.

A Big Ticket Dream

I like going to a place where God hears me. There are so many external forces going on in the world right now, many divisive and grim, that I feel compelled to seek a place where the quiet of my mind makes room for good sensationalism. I have set out this week to find a

Looking Forward in 2022

I love this old photo of my granddaughter – I love her little foot skipping up in glee and the coy smile on her face. She is looking forward with a rainbow framing her thoughts. I thought it so appropriate for this post for a myriad of reasons. For one, she is the next generation
